Everyone Welcome
The path to happiness can be found through Buddhist Meditation. The General Program (GP) class provides a straightforward presentation of Buddhist view, meditation and instruction on how to establish or improve a daily practice. This class is suitable for beginners or for those with more experience. In these classes we will learn why we need meditation and discover practical methods to attain peaceful states of mind.
In these classes we will study various Buddhist texts written by internationally renowned meditation master and scholar, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. Students can purchase books at class or online through the publisher Tharpa Publications.
Anyone can learn basic meditation and experience the benefits that come from having a peaceful mind. This class can benefit everyone, regardless of faith, background or experience. Classes are designed to be self contained and can be enjoyed on a drop in basis. No preregistration is necessary.
What can I expect?
Each class is 1-1/2 hours long and broken down into several sections. We begin with an introduction on the topic to be covered. Then we still our minds with a guided breathing meditation. This is followed by commentary on the actual meditation practice, then a guided meditation on the topic, intra-class discussion, and we close with time for Q & A.
